Proposal 1 has zero support among Livingston County’s delegation in Lansing.

Neither state Sen. Joe Hune nor state Reps. Lana Theis and Hank Vaupel support the May 5 ballot issue.

Hune, R-Hamburg, voted against putting the issue on the ballot during December’s lame-duck Legislative session.

Theis, R-Brighton Township, and Vaupel, R-Handy Township, weren’t in the Legislature at the time but say they’ll vote no at the polls.

If approved, Proposal 1 authorizes three major actions.

It eliminates the current 15-cents-per-gallon state fuel tax and replaces it with a a 41.7-cent-per-gallon tax that would increase with inflation to pay for road repairs. It also removes the state sales tax on fuel to offset that increase. Finally, it raises the state sales tax from 6 percent to 7 percent to make up — and potentially increase — revenue school districts and municipalities would lose from the sales tax shift.
